Right, I've been playing a few games of BLIC07 online on the PC through Gamespy Arcade for the past week or so now. I must say that I've really enjoyed it....that was until I played a game against one real sad individual tonight.
The individual in question was called Mastbanda and despite having a large total to defend (300!!) he never used his main bowlers instead all he did for over 14 overs was to bowl as short as possible (the bowler nearly hitting his own toes) with spin bowlers with the worst ratings (usually batsman) This resulted in the bowl bouncing twice on the wicket... totally unplayable... and if you missed the ball on the 2nd bounce you would be out LBW. I just can't believe someone would get any enjoyment playing like this.......
So I'm just wondering how common this is and if anyone else has played anyone who uses similar tactics......... I think I might stop playing if people abuse a glitch in the game like this..... it's just not cricket!!!
